National Audubon Society

The National Audubon Society

Audubon’s mission is to conserve and restore natural ecosystems, focusing on birds, other wildlife, and their habitats for the benefit of humanity and the earth’s biological diversity. Their national network of community-based nature centers and chapters, scientific and educational programs, and advocacy on behalf of areas sustaining important bird populations, engage millions of people of all ages and backgrounds in positive conservation experiences.

Since 2007 Wild Birds Unlimited has partnered with the National Audubon Society to offer the WBU Audubon Camp Scholarship. This initiative proudly offers scholarships to underserved children. While attending these camps, young people connect with nature, learn to respect it and gain a desire to preserve it for future generations. These scholarships have enabled more than 2,000 kids to attend camp.

Serving Leon, Jefferson, Wakulla, Gadsden, Liberty and Franklin Counties, Apalachee Audubon is a North Florida chapter of the National Audubon Society.  Their mission is to protect the rich biodiversity of the Florida Panhandle through education, appreciation, and conservation.

In the fall of 1963 an extraordinary group of men and women from the Big Bend area of North Florida came together to form the Apalachee Audubon Society. Focusing on conservation and working closely with Audubon Florida and National Audubon, for over 50 years Apalachee Audubon members have joined with like-minded men and women and forged ties with organizations with compatible goals to protect and preserve the natural environment.
